How do I curve part of a shape and keep other parts square?

So im attempting to square part of a rounded square, but leave some sides curved. The problem is I've got a small square to cover the curved square and I have aligned it and yet there is a blured edge that shows its not in line. I was wondering what other way can I go about this or fix this problem. Im new to illustrator! Thank you

Thanks, It appears when I click on a shape nothing happens when Im clicking align I don't see any movement which is like its not working. However I think the problem is fixed now, so your help is very much appricated

    The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
    The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

  • HT1229 How do you transfer photos to external backup and keep the photos in events with event name or with description name. Each time I have tried to transfer them they only transfer with a jpg number so you don't know what photos are what.

    How do you transfer photos to external backup and keep the photos in events with event name or with description name. Each time I have tried to transfer them they only transfer with a jpg number so you don't know what photos are what. When you have several thousand photos it is difficult to determined what is what.
    Why does iPhoto have the ability to put photos in events and to give them descriptions if it doesn't transfer this info with the photo. I want to back my photos up to an external drive.

    The simplest way to achieve what you want is to back up the iPhoto Library. That will get everything.
    You sem to be exporting from iPhoto to the Finder. The Finder does not have the same organisation capabilities as iPhoto. If you're going to do that you need to understand some of the differences between the two.
    Event Name will become  Folder Name.
    'Description Name' I guess is the Title you give the Photo
    Jpeg Number is the File Name assigned by your camera.
    So: File -> Export
    Set your Kind to Jpeg
    Select your preferred Quality
    Check the Boxes at 'Titles and Descriptions' and Location Information
    Under FIlename select 'Use Title'
    Click on Export. In the Next Window choose a New Folder as your export destination and then Name that as you prefer

    I always recommend backing up the iPhoto Library file under your Pictures folder first.
    You can try removing the iPhoto Preference file in your User Library folder. Close iPhoto. If you are using Snow Leopard (10.6) click on Go in the Finder menu bar. Click on Library. If you are now on Lion (10.7), you'll have to hold Option key while clicking Go to see the Library selection. Once here, find the Preferences folder. In here, look for the following:
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    Move this file to the desktop. Start iPhoto and see what happens. If it is working, you can delete the file you moved to the desktop. This should not delete any photos, but will reset iPhoto as if it's the first time you are opening it (so your preferences you set may need to be set back).
    If this doesn't work, let me know.

  • How do I round some corners of a shape and leave other corners unrounded ?

    Hello All;
    Could someone tell me how to round some corners of a illustration and leave some corners unrounded ? If I use Effect - Stylize - Round Corners, it works beautifully but it rounds all corners, even the ones I don't want rounded. See attached illustration. I do not want the four corners emclosed in the circle rounded.
    Anyone know how to do this (easily, I hope) ?
    Thanks.
    Tim

    Tim,
    That's a good one. What you can do is:
    Make two rounded rectangles with the dimensions you require, and stack them on top of each other.
    Go to the align palette and click the icon that centers the objects vertically.
    From your attached illustration, it seems you want to avoid rounding the line segment in the middle top and bottom of each rectangle, so try this:
    With the pen P tool, put the point of the pen on the first of (4)four anchor points you are going to add and click.
    Now do the same thing for the other three anchor points.
    You have now added two anchor points to each rounded rectangle
    With the Direct Selection A tool, Shift/click on both of the furthest right anchor points you just created, and hold shift while clicking the corner radiuses that connect with those points on the right side of the illustration. You should have a total of six points highlighted altogether.
    Now with your keyboard cursor controls, click the arrow down key as many times as you need to get the angle of the line segment that you were trying not to round.
    If there is another way to do it, I'd like to know, but that should work. The corner rediuses you've moved change somewhat, you can adjust them if need be.
    Using the grid and snap to point in the View section of the menu bar will help you align the added anchor points nicely.
    Sounds like a lot, but I recreated your drawing the way you wanted in about 30 seconds.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to batch change all iPhoto imported movies and keep them in same event?

    I have several years of AVI movies that won't be read in iMovie 08 but can be viewed and played using QT from iPhoto 08.
    Anybody know how i can batch convert the entire library of movies in my iPhoto library to mac happy format and keep their creation date, save them back into the same location, and modify iPHoto database to re-path to new clips then remove old? I must maintain organization as these videos are labeled, and dated and sorted according to my daughters entire life! I don't want a new folder with 1000 vidoes, I like to keep them in the 'event' folder they live in and have iPhoto point to them instead of the .avi files that iphoto has no problem with but iMovie does.
    Sounds insane, but it's the only solution i can think of to use iLife products with one of the most popular compact digital camera's in the world which saves in a format that works perfectly everywhere else within my mac other then iLife.
    I'm sorry if i sound a little peeved.. i've been desperately trying to make a solid pipeline for personal media out of my mac since i've switched over, and found that unless your media is born and dies in quicktime, the mac isn't really that friendly.

    Not quite an answer, but perhaps the way towards an answer:
    You want to round trip these avi files out of iPhoto, convert them to a different file type and the bring them back into iphoto whole preserving all of the arrangements you have for them in iPhoto. Correct?
    You cannot do that for a very simple reason, and that is converting the file type will create a new file with a new file name.
    SO we have to be clever... and this might be a way to do that:
    1. Title the files in iPhoto to use their Creation date in the title (so we get Jan 01 2005 - Her First Steps.avi, or somesuch.) I suggest this, but there may be a way to change the file date on the new movies that I don't know about.
    2. Export the files in batches - month by month say - to the desktop and there, process them into the new format. (You'll need to research the Software for that job yourself, I'm no help there)
    Now we have a file called Jan 01 2005 - Her First Steps.mov (or whatever the suffix is going to be.
    3. Create a new library in iPhoto (hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto, choose 'Create Library' Give it a distinctive name: The great library fix, or somesuch)
    4. When you have the new library organised to mirror - as much as possible, delete the avi's from your main library, and use iPhoto Library Manager to move the reformatted files back...
    That's an approach to the issue. Have a think about it, maybe it'll spark you - or someone else to come up with some improvements - or a whole better model.
    Or, we could try and get v7 to read the movies like v6 did... what are the symptoms?

  • How to delete one kind of music file and keep another.

    Hello everyone, I'm new here and I hope you can help me. I have an iPod touch, and I am trying to add my music to it, but I only want the AAC versions on my iPod.  I've got some mp3 tracks in iTunes, and some AAC versions as well.  I have added the "kind" column, to order the files by their mp3 and AAC versions.  Now I want to delete the mp3 versions, and keep the AAC versions to add to my iPod.  Is there a way of highlighting the mp3 versions en masse, so I can select all the mp3 tracks in one go, ready to delete them?  I don't want to remove them from the computer itself; just from iTunes.  I could select each mp3 track in turn, and delete them individually, but that is a laborious way of doing the job.  I'm looking for an easier method.  Can anyone offer me a suggestion as to how to do this please, either via iTunes, or via a file management method in my Windows PC?  Thank you for your time in reading this question.

    It's OK, I sorted it myself.  I sorted the songs by "kind" as explained above.  Then I highlighted the first mp3 track, scrolled down to the last one, then pressed the shift key to highlight all the mp3 tracks.  Finally, I right clicked and chose "delete" from the options, which removed all the mp3 tracks in one go.

  • How to restrict the functions in People Enter and Maintain - Others LOV

    I want to restrict the functions appearing when i click on People Enter and Maintain -> Others screen.
    Can this be done through form personalization ?
    If not how can this be achived.
    I want to restrict the list in Assignmnet -> Others list also.
    Thanks in advance

    Change the underlying taskflow.
    In the form function parameters, you can find the taskflow name for the WORKFLOW parameter.
    Make a copy of the seeded taskflow and add/remove nodes as you wich.
    4 nodes in a taskflow can be checked to appear as a button, if you have more nodes linked to the form, they will appear under the other button.
    This is configuration, no customization or personalization!

  • How to transfer itunes library to external drive and keep playlists and ratings

    I don't have much space on my laptop. I have attached an external drive. I want to access my Itunes library from
    the external drive.  All attempts to move the library now result in me losing my "playlists"  and even more importantly
    my ratings and genre information.
    How can I move the library with all my associated data intact such as the playlists, ratings, genres?
    I want this external drive to be the main location where I access my Itunes library.
    Once that is done I will work on backing it up, as that will be the only place that the data exists.
    Also, will my Apple TV be also be able to access my Itunes library with playlists. thus far I have not been able to do this.

    Start by consolidating your library. When you consolidate, any songs in the iTunes Library that are not in the iTunes Music Folder are copied to the Music Folder and the Library is updated to point to those new files. Files already in the iTunes Music Folder have no changes made to them: Consolidating your library - Windows
    Then copy the iTunes Folder to your external drive. Copying the whole folder brings with it the iTunes Music folder and also the iTunes Library (iTunes Library.itl in Windows) database file which holds all the information about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). You'll get more information including the Folder/File structure in this article: What are the iTunes library files?
    Disconnect your external drive and connect it to your new computer, copy the iTunes folder to the new pc. When you copy the iTunes folder make sure you put it into the default location on the new computer. On a PC this is \Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\ (or C:\Username\Music\ in Vista). You should also use the same version of iTunes on both computers.
    Once you have copied everything over hold down the Shift key in Windows when opening iTunes. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to an existing one. Navigate to where you placed the copy of the library file and open it up: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file
    If you have any iTunes purchases in your library don't forget that you'll need to authorise your new computer to play them. Also if you are disposing of the old one remember to deauthorise it so you don't use up one of your allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation
